SCARS™ Support: Open Letter To A Victim In Pain
We had a victim come to us in a rage over wanting to find her scammer.
It appears she is not listening. We hope this information makes its way to her!
Here Is Her Last Message To Us:
– – – – – – – –
” My recovery ? Not possible anymore
I lost all,and my self respect and more
I do not want to live anymore but want to know who did this to me ”
– – – – – – – –
However we have to try to get through, and perhaps this will benefit some of you as well?
Here Is An Open Letter To Christina
Christina, of course, it is possible to recover.
Right now you are angry. You want revenge. But those are the enemies of recovery.
You will probably never know who did it to you.
Why?
Because scammers normally do not work alone, they work in teams. Some teams are small – basically gangs, some are major organizations with thousands of scam-workers.
The way scammers get arrested is very rarely from a reported scam. Most of the time it is through their behavior in real life. 21,000 scammers were arrested last year – about 10 of them were because a victim reported. Most were arrested because they tripped themselves up or because the accumulated reports – information created a path to them.
The information that you have is going to be all lies. You may not have any hard data, unless you sent money to a bank account???
You will not get revenge. Leaving your anger out of control will only harm you.
You can get through this as long as you are alive. If you really feel like you are not going to make it call this number: 1-800-273-8255 Day or night
But you also need to know that if you can get past your anger, there are financial resources available for you. But your anger is going to be a barrier so set it aside.
Accept that where you are is where you are. If you can do that then you can move away from there and not be trapped there.
We can help you understand what resources are available to you – from money to counseling to support groups. But you have to leave the fantasy of justice and revenge behind you.
Can you do that?

FAQ: How Do You Properly Report Scammers?
It is essential that law enforcement knows about scams & scammers, even though there is nothing (in most cases) that they can do.
Always report scams involving money lost or where you received money to:
- Local Police – ask them to take an “informational” police report – say you need it for your insurance
- Your National Police or FBI (www.IC3.gov »)
- The SCARS|CDN™ Cybercriminal Data Network – Worldwide Reporting Network HERE » or on www.Anyscam.com »
This helps your government understand the problem, and allows law enforcement to add scammers on watch lists worldwide.

A Note About Labeling!
We often use the term ‘scam victim’ in our articles, but this is a convenience to help those searching for information in search engines like Google. It is just a convenience and has no deeper meaning. If you have come through such an experience, YOU are a Survivor! It was not your fault. You are not alone! Axios!
A Question of Trust
At the SCARS Institute, we invite you to do your own research on the topics we speak about and publish, Our team investigates the subject being discussed, especially when it comes to understanding the scam victims-survivors experience. You can do Google searches but in many cases, you will have to wade through scientific papers and studies. However, remember that biases and perspectives matter and influence the outcome. Regardless, we encourage you to explore these topics as thoroughly as you can for your own awareness.
Statement About Victim Blaming
Some of our articles discuss various aspects of victims. This is both about better understanding victims (the science of victimology) and their behaviors and psychology. This helps us to educate victims/survivors about why these crimes happened and to not blame themselves, better develop recovery programs, and to help victims avoid scams in the future. At times this may sound like blaming the victim, but it does not blame scam victims, we are simply explaining the hows and whys of the experience victims have.
These articles, about the Psychology of Scams or Victim Psychology – meaning that all humans have psychological or cognitive characteristics in common that can either be exploited or work against us – help us all to understand the unique challenges victims face before, during, and after scams, fraud, or cybercrimes. These sometimes talk about some of the vulnerabilities the scammers exploit. Victims rarely have control of them or are even aware of them, until something like a scam happens and then they can learn how their mind works and how to overcome these mechanisms.
Articles like these help victims and others understand these processes and how to help prevent them from being exploited again or to help them recover more easily by understanding their post-scam behaviors. Learn more about the Psychology of Scams at www.ScamPsychology.org
